Good Morning everyone. My name is Wanda Whitten and I am new to this and how it works. I am also new to quilting. I am 63 years old and have brain cancer. I was looking for something to keep me busy and keep my mind off of the cancer. I selected quilting. :) Okay...I'm now addicted to it!!! I am working on my first quilt top (a log cabin ) I don't know much about the quilting part. I would love to have a quilting machine, but, can't afford one. I search for patterns all of the time. I am currently looking for the pattern and instructions for the Dutch Star block. :)
Nice to meet all of you. :D

Welcome from Idaho! What type of quilting are you into? Do you like to hand quilt, hand applique, do round robins, or make bed quilts? Are you a traditional type of quilter or are you one of those innovative gals who can turn anything into an amazing work of art?

I like to hand quilt because it is so relaxing . :roll: I do some machine quilting on my machine (very little). I have made many bed quilts and some smaller project. I like making different tote bags. Yes, I am a traditional quilter but I have made a few quilts from my own ideas. Thanks for asking. Right now I'm looking for a Bargello pattern, it will be my first. Kathy :lol:
